Cabin Fever
Eli Roth
Age: Rider Strong, Jordan Ladd, James DeBello, Cerina Vincent
You Aughta Know: "That guy asked for our help. We lit him on fire. You'll understand if I'm not in a particularly social mood."
"That guy asked for our help. We lit him on fire. You'll understand if I'm not in a particularly social mood."
Eli Roth's directorial debut centers on five college friends who rent a cabin in the woods for a week of sex, partying, and squirrel shooting—then fall prey to a flesh-eating virus and the craziest backwoods locals this side of Deliverance. Not totally unlike that weekend you got snowed in with your hot distant cousin when you both had chicken pox, 'cept with a little less incest guilt and a lot more death.

Frankenstein? Nosferatu? Dracula? Psycho? Jaws? The Blob? Alien? Cape Fear? Carrie? Whatever Happened to Baby Jane? Them?

Classics, but most of them to old to be really scary ... nothing like The Shining with it´s timeless psychopathic plot ...

I thought this was done very well for an indie film. espesh the way they talk to the 3rd person. (The audience) I dunno if it was that scary, but it was good.
